Description
IMPORTANT - Note to members, when searching for, or adding beers, please use the beer name, not the style.

We are a dynamic and growing 15BBL brewery based in Tunbridge Wells, Kent producing beer in Cask, Keg & Can. Pig and Porter is a passion born of necessity, nurtured in a shed, fuelled by belief and fulfilled by the creation of beers that we love. We’re now on a mission to share our beers with everyone who wants to drink better. All of our beers are now vegan friendly with the exception of Honey Hill Wit which contains honey. Pig and Porter now has a growing team in a shiny new site with a new head brewer Riina Laats taking our beers in a new direction.

Cask at Crewe Dog, Crewe. Pours dark mahogany with a small cream head. Oats to the fore in the aroma, along with cream and roast malts. In the mouth it is sweet with a creamy texture. Roasted malts are the mainstay of the flavour, along with some liquorice and hints of chocolate and coffee. Finish is smooth and dry. Reasonable but not wildly exciting.
